Veloflex Corsa EVO Folding Tire - Open Tubular - 28-622 | gum

The Veloflex Corsa EVO folding tires are equipped with an innovative rubber compound. In combination with the exceedingly soft 320 TPI corespun carcass, this provides not only a lower rolling resistance, but also an amazing grip. In addition, there is an extremely tough RKB (Resilient Kinetic Belt) breaker, which improves puncture protection.

Open Tubular. This manufacturing process combines the advantages of tubular and clincher tires. They are manufactured as precisely as normal tubular tires, but without closing them at the bottom. This makes them more suitable for everyday use, since they can be mounted on the rim equipped with a tube - just like normal folding tires - and a quick tube change is possible in the event of a puncture. The driving characteristics and the rolling behavior are extremely similar to those of tubular tires.

Handmade in Italy. All Open Tubular tires are developed with the same artisanal process that Veloflex uses for its tubular tires handmade in the laboratory. Veloflex stands for craftsmanship, tradition, expertise and constant research to create tires that offer exceptional performance.

Exclusive Compound | With its smooth profile, the innovative tread compound of natural rubber and silica forms the heart of the Veloflex tires. The compound not only ensures lower rolling resistance, but also exceptional road grip.

SPS Sidewall Protection System | Further sidewall protection in the bead area of the tire to reinforce the contact between tire and rim, making the former suitable for all carbon rims available on the market, regardless of type or brand.

RKB (Resilient Kinetic Belt) | The puncture protection belt is made of an extremely tough yarn, without altering the softness of the tire and low rolling resistance, and to prevent any external damage.

Kevlar® Beads | The beads made of ultra-light, non-stretch Kevlar® facilitating the installation in the rim and allowing a space-saving folding of the tire.
